In this interview, Dr. Tobias Wilson-Bates, assistant professor of English at Georgia Gwinnett College, interviews Dr. Rebecca Struthers, author of the recently published Hands of Time: A Watchmaker's History (HarperCollins, 2023) and the first watchmaker in British history to earn a Ph.D. in horology (the study and measurement of time).
We are sharing this 'Time in the Novel' interview to coincide with the release of the winter 2023 issue of Studies in the Novel, a special number titled "Strange Temporalities: Gender, Time, and the Novel."
In spring 2019, Studies in the Novel released a special issue commemorating the journal's first 50 years. This retrospective issue includes seminal articles from the journal's first five decades, with each reprinted article featuring a new introduction commissioned to put the original work in context.
In this podcast, editor Nora Gilbert speaks with Brian Shea of Johns Hopkins University Press about how the issue came together and what the future holds for Studies in the Novel.
